SCOUT ANALYST JOHN BOLLMAN'S TAKE

Dansby Swanson was scratched from the lineup yesterday with heel soreness. The injury is not expected to be serious, but with the off day today the Braves figured it would be a good time to get him two days off. Johan Carmargo will takeover while he’s injured, he is not worth a look in fantasy.

REST OF SEASON OUTLOOK AND POSITION RANK

Based on average projected fantasy points, Dansby Swanson is the #19 fantasy shortstop with an average of 2.78 fantasy points per game. But with him projected to play just 12.6 games in you will need to wait on him to deliver value. In 98 games this season he has averaged 3.07 which ranks him as the #12 shortstop based on average.
